How long have you played basketball, and who or what got you started?

I have played basketball at the age of 5. I think what made me want to start playing was my parents being big on basketball and my mom coaching my first basketball team.

What are you going to miss the most from the 2025 class?

the leadership they portray on our team and the connections on and off the court

What moment during the season, a game, at practice, or on the bus ride will you remember the most?

The pregame bus rides to the game talking about anything and everything. Also home games where the energy is always there.

What part of your game do you believe is the strongest?

My shooting but also having the ability to drive hard and play good defense.

Which part of your game do you hope to improve the most during the off-season?

More moves I can use around the bucket and being more consistent with my shots.

Which gym is the toughest to play in? Explain.

I would say either Amanda Just because of the tension when we play, there is always high, and the atmosphere is loud.

Who is the best player you have ever faced in a game, along with the team they played on?

I would either say Addison Edgington because she has an excellent inside game and she is strong with the ball and can finish well, or Taylor Evans because she can convert points at any spot, whether that is from the three, driving and making moves to the basket, or dishing off to another player.

Who is the toughest teammate to face in practice?

Either Christian because of her tall lengthiness, which makes it hard to get shots off, or Averey because she is quick and a lockdown defender.

What is your favorite and least favorite drill to do during practice?

My favorite drill to do in practice is definitely 11-man, and my least favorite is probably zig-zags, even though that drill has probably helped us the most this year with our defense.

Just focusing on this season, which win meant the most? Explain.

I think that our third win against Circleville meant that most. You always hear the term beating a team 3 times is hard. There was also a lot of tension behind this game from our last two matchups in league play.

What do you think needs to be done to get bigger crowds at the games?

Honestly, girls sports have never really gotten a lot of attention, but for our team this year, I don’t think I could’ve asked for a better support system. Our community was behind our backs the whole time, and we’re part of the reason we won games.

What is your favorite class or subject?

Spanish or Chemistry

What is your favorite type of music?

Country

What is a talent or skill you have that might shock those around you?

I am actually pretty good at gymnastics.

Semi Pro: Columbus Fire 8 Port City Spartans 0 (Game called in the third because of fighting)

Image
  Yesterday I drove to Portsmouth and met up with my friend Bill Norman after dinner at The Portsmouth Brewing Company before driving over to Spartan Stadium to watch the semi-pro football game and watch the Port City Spartans host the Columbus Fire. I have been to over 1,500 football games, or close to that amount, and I can say none of them prepared me for what I ended up seeing. The stadium had one set of lights that did not work at all that I had seen before (Jackson State University). One pole had a light missing, and another pole had one single light that did not work at all on the visitor's side, making the field dark. I saw a fan on the Spartans side of the field standing with the players vaping, and I saw a player setting on the bench for most of the game also vaping. The game itself was stopped once when the refs walked off the field for what one player on the Spartans said was because a Columbus player said something about going after the ref with a gun. Then a fight bro...

  Logan Doughty Miller High School Quarterback, free safety 2025 6,2 170 lbs What are some of the awards you have won or earned? Two times first team all MSL, two times first team all district, two times honorable mention all Ohio What were the high and low points of the 2023 season? I’d say a high point would be doubling our wins from the 2022 season. Some low points would be losing three close games that would’ve given us a higher seed in tournament play and not being able to win a playoff game. What are your personal goals for the 2024 season? 1,500 rushing yards and 1,000 passing yards, 25 rushing touchdowns, and 15 passing touchdowns. How long have you played football, along with the reasons you continue to play? I have been playing football for 11 years. Football clicked as soon as I put the pads on; there’s something about it that I can’t get enough of. I’d say the reason I continue to play is my love for the game. Who or what got you interested in playing footb...
